[Verse 1]
D A
There are people going hungry every day
G D
They've got nothing on their plates
G D A A
And you're filling your fat face with every different kind of cake
D A
And if you ever go lardy, or go lame
G D
I will drop you straight away
G D
That's the price you have to pay
A A
For every stupid thing you say
[Verse 2]
D A
There are people going lonely, and they'll stay
G D
Lonely far into the year
G D
Because you're making blinkers fashionable
A A
And fashionably you'll say
D
"All is equal in love and war" and
A G D
"I'm sorry, but I've got some things to do"
G D A A
And you pretend to read a book you'll never finish till the day
[Chorus]
Bm
That the author dedicates it
G
To a century of fakers
D A
They took your mould and they burned it on the fire in history today
Bm
Yeah, the author dedicates it
G
To a century of fakers
D A
He was an anarchist, he tried his best but it wasn't good enough
[Interlude] (la...)
A A G D A A G D
(Verse 3] (same chords)
Did I say I would see you soon?
Well I'm sorry, but I just came off my bike
And my face is scarred
And chance has barred me seeing you tonight
I was over the other side of the city
And if the truth be known I'd say
That you look great from there before you shaved your golden hair today
[Chorus]
Bm
Everybody's trying to make us
G
Another century of fakers
D A
They took you mould and burned it on the fire of history today
Bm
Everybody's trying to make us
G D G
Another cool decade of fakers
D
Everybody's trying to make us
G
Another century of fakers
